Hello everyone, and welcome to the blog of iKnit!
iKnit is a nonprofit group that knits and crochets items - such as scarves, beanies, blankets, and toys - for people in need. iKnit was formed in early November of 2011 by Ivonnie and Melinda, two students at Mission San Jose School, as part of their English project on Romanticism.
We realized that knitting and crocheting for charity characterized Romanticism in that we use our imaginations to create art, pour our feelings into our handiwork, and strive to inspire others in our school and community to join in and make the world a better place. The English assignment was a perfect opportunity for us to actually do something that we'd considered before but had never gotten around to doing.
Since iKnit was formed in early November of 2011, we've only just started on our journey to spread warmth and joy through our handmade crafts. We will be donating through a variety of organizations - hospitals, charities, shelters - to anyone in need; projects may include knitting & crocheting for premature babies, the homeless, cancer patients, and those affected by natural disasters. If you have an idea for a project, feel free to email it to iKnit.MSJ@gmail.com!
